Lauren and Andy were very welcoming and made our stay enjoyable! They were easy to contact and flexible with the accommodation and time. The location is easily accessible and the rooms were big and very neat, set up beautifully. Provided well with towels and even other essential items such as toothbrushes, shavers, shampoo, conditioner etc. The house was heated and heater was provided in room. This was our first time in Newcastle and we would definitely come here again and recommend others.

AmyJanuary 2016

Magical home. Friendly hosts with friendly dog. The best.

HaoFebruary 2016

Lauren and Andy were great hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed our two nights there. They were available for a chat but also gave us privacy to do our own thing. The beds were super comfy and we had access to everything we needed in the kitchen and enjoyed lazing on the deck on Sat afternoon. Our 5 yo loved the company of Hervey (Lauren and Andy's dog) on the Sat when I had to work close by. Lauren left us breakfast goodies which were more than adequate for the three of us. Communication was great before and during our stay and will happily stay again when I need to work in the area. Thanks again guys!

Casey and Josh were so lovely and welcoming during my 5 week stay with them. They're both such nice and friendly people who were more than happy to have a chat whenever but also to give space and privacy. They have a beautiful home in a nice area close to everything you could need during your stay. I couldn't recommend this place enough :)

I was travelling for work and needed somewhere nice and comfortable to stay for a week. Bedroom (with private balcony) and bathroom (with both bath and shower) exceeded the size and comfort of many brand name 5star hotels! Quiet location 5minutes drive from city offices, This was a wonderful place to stay, highly recommended.

I stayed at Peter's place for a few weeks while looking for long-term accommodation in Newcastle. From the moment he picked me up from the station up until he helped me move in to my new place, Peter has been nothing but friendly, generous, and accommodating. I truly don't know what I would have done without him during those few chaotic weeks. He is a wonderful host with a wonderful place to stay. I would not hesitate to recommend the 'Chateau Murto' to anyone!

I went to Newcastle at a really bad timing when the cyclonic storm happened that caused half the town with no power, and some parts of NSW flooded, etc. It happened so quickly that no one expected it, hence no one gave a serious warning so I just headed to the town unexpectedly. Due to train stations closed, by the time i took a bus and arrived it was very late, with the storm getting worst, Joachim was still so willing to come and fetch me from the bus station. I realised later i did put him in danger as driving in such condition was bad. Despite my bad timing, I found Joachim to be really patient with my multiple questions even before the trip, about my trip (and the disruptions of the trains/buses relating to the storm), and still try his best to make my stay comfortable when I arrived (when he was still very worried as his rooftop of his shed was blown off). I found his room and place to be very cosy, and his bed so comfortable. I should have stayed there for 4 nights but due to the storm, the workshop i supposed to attend was being relocated to Brisbane and I was being flown off the next day. Joachim volunteered to return some of my money and that was very kind and uncalled for. In light of such difficult situation and my 'messy' arrival, it shows how nice and helpful Joachim is. There is no sign of him being selfish at all despite him being caught in this storm worrying about his own house and situation, etc. I highly recommend Joachim's accommodations!

AshleyApril 2015

Great host, very funny, always happy to give good info about the area, take you dancing or cycling. Breakfast offered if you want it. House clean and tidy. Location great, only 5 min walk to huge shoping centre (up and down a hill mind you). Bed comfy. I can easily recommend to stay with Joachim, as he is just a nice guy!

The place is in a great location to reach all parts of Newcastle within 5-10 minutes. Our group was 5 adults and 2 children and the place was easily large enough to accommodate us all. The image of the front of the cottage doesn't do it justice, it really is a large house. We would stat here again fro sure. I would definitely recommend this place.

this was an easy and spacious older home for a family get together in a quiet street and nice part of town. A pleasant garden and verandah made it perfect for our needs - very comfortable and space to eat family meals at the dining table or on the verandah and sit to in the lounge room

A lovely place. Beautiful decorated high ceilings and polished floors evoke a bygone era. Plenty of room to socialize in the lounge room, a well-appointed kitchen and bathrooms, and a nice deck at the back that looks out onto the garden. The neighbourhood is quiet. Our group of four adults (no couples) were very comfortable. Even the single beds in the twin room were fine for two men. Highly recommended.

The bus stop is one minute away, where you can easily get buses to town/train/elsewhere. We walk around everywhere, or cycle. The beach only takes a few minutes by bike or a flat easy 15 minutes by foot. However car parking at the beaches isn't too much of a problem either.
We have some lovely neighbours and the house is in a quiet location.
The house and yard are nice and private, there are high ornate ceilings, stained glass features and a fireplace. It has a fantastic backyard and large living areas.
The kitchen and laundry are very functional (with a gas stove/oven, a large new fridge, a new dishwasher, new rangehood and new clothes dryer).
We've just updated our large bathroom including a great new shower. We have a bath and also a second toilet.
We've also laid new carpet and kitchen flooring and updated our sunroom.
We have a comfy couch with chaise. We have a few herbs you are very welcome to help yourself to.
We have two bedrooms set up for guests which are a good size. Fresh sheets and towels will be supplied, as well as pantry essentials (coffee, tea, condiments).
Thank you for your time.
Whole house, pool and gardens
You will have utmost privacy. We are elsewhere.

It is quiet, we have nice neighbours, there are parks around and it's equidistant from many places we like to go (eg. Merewether Beach and The Junction). We provide information on off leash dog areas too (the nearest being a stone's throw away).
The bus stop is one minute away, where you can easily get buses to town/train/elsewhere. We walk around everywhere, or cycle. The beach only takes a few minutes by bike or a flat easy 15 minutes by foot.

Amy and Aaron were wonderful hosts and their house is absolutely perfect, I could not recommend this place and these hosts highly enough!!

KerrieJanuary 2016

Amy and Aaron's house is a gorgeous place. Very clean and neat. The pool is also really refreshing after a day at the beach! They left a lovely note with instructions on everything in the neighbourhood which was great as well as day trips around the area. They were also extremely accommodating with our late arrival.

Nick & MarniOctober 2014

The hosts are very attentive, flexible and reliable and left useful and welcoming information for us. We found the place exactly how it was in the pictures, no surprises! My husband, dog, and I found the backyard very relaxing and pleasant, perfect for breakfast and lunch outside on sunny days. The house is in a quiet residential area and just a short car ride away from beautiful beaches.

ElenaMay 2014

We stayed at Amy & Aaron's place for a week over Xmas 2014. There were 2 of us (humans) & our 2 dogs and it was great. The place is exactly as decribed and in the photos. Amy & Aaron were very helpful in the booking process and left lots of useful info for us in the house - and some special nice surprises for the dogs. The house is roomy, very quiet and easy to relax in. The pool is a great bonus! Thanks Amy & Aaron.

JohnJanuary 2015

My partner and I and our pup !! stayed for 9 days in Newcastle. A really calm welcoming home, listed and described well - the atmosphere in Amy and Aaron's home we found really cosy and calm!! A great location, with lovely neighbours! Close to the centre, shops, restaurants and bars and beaches ! Really wonderful, Amy was always to hand with questions and really grateful we could bring our pooch.

MadelineApril 2016

Absolutely loved the experience at Petra's place. Immediately after stepping in her place, she made me feel like I was at home. She had a very open and friendly personality and so did Glen! They respected my privacy and at the same time assured me to provide help whenever needed. Her place was very tidy and cozy, with her own artwork scattered around, generating a sense of tastefulness in the house. Nobby's Beach and the bus interchange were within 10 minutes walking distance and the rental bicycle bay was around the corner. I walked over 20,000 steps each day as there were lots to see around!! Thank you again Petra and Glen, I can't wait to go back and stay at your place again!

JuneJuly 2016

What a fantastic stay! My partner and I stayed here for 4 nights and had an amazing time. Petra was away for most of this time but her friend was an outstanding host. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time, making us feel welcome and at home. There was nothing you couldn't ask of her, she really was tremendous. The place really is even better than the photos. The view is incredible, from every window. It's cool on a warm day, always well lit with natural light, the design and decor is really nice. We had a wonderful time staying here, walking two minutes to the water and three minutes to coffee and restaurants. We met Petra on our last night and she was just as kind and welcoming, giving space for privacy while always remaining available for assistance if we needed it. We cannot recommend this place enough, it was our best stay in Newcastle so far.

SophieOctober 2016

AMAZING !!! Thanks so much Petra. From the moment we met you and walked into your home, we just knew we were in for a great experience. Location is as good as it can get. Your advice on the local area was so accurate and beneficial. Superb in every aspect.

JohnApril 2016

Petra is fantastic. She made me feel very comfortable and welcome. The location is great, close to everything.

JessieApril 2016

Petra and Glen are genuine and warm hosts who make you feel welcome and relaxed immediately. The architecture and interior design of their home is beautiful, and it is directly above the water with impressive ocean views. Petra made us an amazing breakfast that we shared on the balcony while watching dolphins play in the waves!! Couldn't be a better start to the day. The bedroom is a nice size, with a very comfortable bed and the ocean sounds to put you to sleep. It was the perfect weekend stay and I do hope to see them again.

KaraFebruary 2016

Petra & her Partner made us feel very welcome in their beautiful beachside home. We were shown to our bedroom, all the house facilities and given a key. The premises is well looked after and a little piece of paradise. There is plenty to do and also lots of parking available. Restaurants are a 10 minute walk. Overall a great atmosphere and we would definitely return.

PattyFebruary 2016

Petra is such a great host ! My cousin & i loved the place and really enjoyed the views and vibe of the place. Petra makes sure you have everything you need & you're well looked after!

Thanks Joachim, for your very comfortable house and your excellent hospitality. We had a great time in Newcastle, a nice and laid back/quite city. Joachim took us on the tuesdaynight to the local salsa dancing, we were not the most talented guys, but it is good fun. He´s a very easy going and helpful host. Thanks again Jonathan & Alex

Simple, clean apartment in the middle of Beaumont St, home to many cafes, bars, restaurants and shops.
Short walk to major bus routes and the train station, or a short drive in to town and the beaches.
Due to the busy location, this can be a noisy place at odd hours. There is also 1 flight of stairs up to the apartment.

Teressa's place was amazing with great views of the sea and the apartment was very tidy and modern. Communication with Teressa was a breeze - she was very prompt and responsive. I would be happy to visit again.
